Hello Monks,

I have perl tk script which given to my team they do use that script for doing file transfer, from windows machine to their unix home directory. Their unix home directory was mounted on the windows machine via samba, so I was able to copy the files to their home directory without any issues.

The unix server migrated to new server and samba mount no more available, and its more of secured server and RSA token based login, no more static password, now I got a situation that I need to supply RSA token for the file transfer.

I can add an entry widget additionally in the existing window like below, will that work? my concern is that if the token got expired before I try scp I need to get the RSA token again.like a popop how to do that?

my $passwd;
my $password = $dialog->add("Entry",
                            -show => "*",
                            -textvariable => \$passwd)
                      ->pack();
